PENNE ROSA WITH PARMESAN CRUSTED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Place 2 cups Parmesan cheese into a shallow bowl.
• Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in penne and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through but is still firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink.
• Dip chicken breasts into the beaten egg whites.
• Press chicken into Parmesan cheese in shallow bowl to coat both sides.
• Gently toss between your hands so any cheese that hasn't stuck can fall away. Place the chicken on prepared baking sheet.
• Bake chicken breasts in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 18 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

• Heat a large skillet over medium high heat; cook and stir mushrooms and spinach until mushrooms are tender, about 5 minutes.
